Great video, I agree with previous comments, the kids random appearances put a smile on my face to, you dealt with it like a pro and obviously a great Dad . Looking forward to part 2.
Having the kids pop in the video was actually cute. My take away is, your a father that spends time around his family. Nothing better or admirable than that sir.
Thank you for the video. Looking forward to part II. I love and am very appreciative of the adze and drawknife you made for me. They are fantastic heritage tools that have helped me make a number of bowls.
Hey there, nice video. I just picked up some fresh cherry wood and thought I would make a bowl similar to the one you carved. My question is did you start out with fresh cherry or dry and if dry should I wait until mines dry to start? Thanks
Yeah I know me too it's like they wanted to participate in this activity and all this guy wanted to do is not have them at all in the in the environment that he was trying to create which I don't know man the whole spoon carving the whole carving thing is supposed to be a family thing you know he's supposed to bring your kids up in it and include them... I was smiling in the background too it's too bad that they're not allowed to participate. Well and then they wonder why kids grow up and turn out the way they do
@@clayguinard3651 Participate? The kids were running the camera for this video! It can be hard to get the complete picture from one video. Some folks criticize me for starting my son carving when he was three, others think its not happening enough if its not on video. Anyway, thanks for your comment, and I'm so glad you got a smile out of it.
It is still very green. This method of carving depends on the soft, green wood because it is easier to carve with hand tools, as well as being less prone to cracking.
I keep my started bowls in sealed plastic totes or bags. After I finish for the day I put them in the container with all the wood chips I've created and close it up until I'm ready to get back at it. There is a minor danger that if you leave it in plastic too long mold can begin to form on the surface but that is minor.
Nolan, I've never kept an exact record of how long it takes, but I'd guess a couple of hours to rough out a bowl this size, and at least that much for the finishing.

I meant nothing more admirable. Didn’t want to sound like a jerk there. Lol

Good to hear from you Martin, and I'm glad to know the tools are serving you well.
Great to see your tools in action. I really enjoyed the cameos from your little ones. Looking forward to the next video.
Excellent work friend blessings greetings from 🇦🇲
The first time I see such a tool for pocketing the hole. Fabulous tools you have Jason.
That was lots of fun. And, oh yeah... so much skill.
muy buenas herramientas...... gracias por el video
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing that, Jason. I own your small bowl adze and just love it!
Thanks, glad you like the adze.
Lot of work. Great video
You have a great helper
Great job on the video

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video. I start with fresh, green wood. The fresher it is, the easier to carve.
Did you make your adze? Is it ground on the inside or outside? Can you suggest a maker? Very nicely done by the way.
Спасибо за видео. Подписался на Ваш канал. Жду новых видео. Удачи в развитии канала. Заходите в гости. Больше разнопланового видео.
I hope the kids don't actually annoy you, hearing them in the background makes me smile. Do I also hear a dog yawn occasionally?

0:53 little girl splits. The good news 'Honey' is we now have twins
Did you make the swan neck chisel yourself?
Great work - may i ask, did you make that big dogleg gouge? And if you did make it can you make me one 🙂🙂👍
wish he would have answered =/
I gather that cherry log is still wet? Do you ever try carving this sort of bowl with a log that's had some time to dry?
It is still very green. This method of carving depends on the soft, green wood because it is easier to carve with hand tools, as well as being less prone to cracking.
@@jasonlonontoolmaker thanks. The problem I have is in getting something that doesn't dry out before I get a chance to work with it.
@@Aethalops If you have to let your logs sit before working, keep it out of the sun and seal the end grain with wood glue

Roughly how much time from log to bowl ?
Nolan, I've never kept an exact record of how long it takes, but I'd guess a couple of hours to rough out a bowl this size, and at least that much for the finishing.
Lol it's like Im getting to see what the Amish do! (I know youre probably not Amish if youre on YT)
Shame about the traffic noise
